Ukraine is under existential threat, they don't have a choice. Like Palestine. I don't characterise Palestine as a Chinese proxy that is willing to lay down 100% of their lives for the cause, because they don't have any alternatives.
Well what more do you want than seeing millions of Ukrainians die, flee, have everything they've built up captured or destroyed, which will effectively end their attempt at nationhood?
I don't see how China can do more without committing crimes against humanity.
It's a real problem that they need to stem the tide through 3rd parties to Ukraine, which has become an insane problem, resold Chinese hardware is killing a ton of people on both sides. If hardware can only go to Russia, it would severely hamper Ukrainian defenses.
Who enables Russia to do that, and who coordinates with Russia to move in all their stuff to start extracting resources once the west gets kicked out?
Do you really think Xi unironically does nothing? US talks more, but how much have they impacted the living standards or industrial power of China? And vice versa?
US is spamming punches that do little to nothing, like sanctions on products widely available in China, bans on politicians to travel to US, or however many millions to spread misinfo. While nearly every hook China throws out has devastating consequences for living standards in the west, causing dropping wages, recession, whole countries lost to western resource extraction etc.
It's insane to me that anyone would unironically think China did nothing. The world's premier power was simply granted to China by the heavens?
